No, the sun fading problem is absolutely something they'll replace for free, and it's not normal. I'd suggest doing that and hopefully that will resolve your battery problem too.
While it's true that this is not a representative sample, there's no reason to think Kindle grognards are more likely to get the sun fading issue than other users. They just are informed enough to test it and notice it. But aside from other defect issues (creaky buttons, contrast issues) the sunlight fading problem seems to be common to 10 - 30% of all Kindle 2s.
